2 of 39 - ' NAME AND INTENDED USE

The Cervista Tm HPV 16/18 test is an in vitro diagnostic test for the qualitative detection of DNA from Human Papillomavirus (HPV) Type 16 and Type 18 in cervical specimens. The Cervista Tm HPV 16/18 test uses the Invader® chemistry, a signal amplification method for detection of specific nucleic acid sequences. This method uses two types of isothermal reactions; a primary reaction that occurs on the targeted DNA sequence and a secondary reaction that produces a fluorescent signal (See Figure 1).

The Cervista Tm HPV 16/18 test is indicated:

1) In women 30 years and older the Cervista TM HPV 16/18 test can be used adjunctively with the CervistarMI HPV HR test in combination with cervical cytology to assess the presence or absence of high-risk HPV types 16 and 18. This information, together with the physician's assessment of cytology history, other risk factors, and professional guidelines, may be used to guide patient management.

2) To be used adjunctively with the Cervista TM HPV HR test in patients with atypical squamous cells of undetermined significance (ASC-US) cervical cytology results, to assess the presence or absence of high-risk HPV types 16 and 18. This information, together with the physician's assessment of cytology history, other risk factors, and professional guidelines, may be used to guide patient management. The results of this test are not intended to prevent women from proceeding to colposcopy.

Cervical specimens that may be tested with the Cervista T HPV 16/18 test include the following preservation system and collection devices:

• ThinPrep® Pap Test PreservCyt® Solution * Broom-type device (e.g. Rovers Cervex® Brush, Wallach Papette®), or Endocervical Brush/Spatula

WARNINGS * This test is not intended for use in determining the need for treatment (l~eexcisional or ablative treatment of the cervix) in the absence of high-grade cervical dysplasia. Patients who are HPV 16/18 positive should be monitored carefully for the development of high-grade cervical dysplasia according to current practice guidelines. * The Cervista Tm HPV 16/18 test is not intended for use as a stand-alone assay. Results should be interpreted in conjunction with the CervistaTm HPV HR and cervical cytology test results. * The Cervista Tm HPV 16/18 test is not intended for use in women under age 30 with normal cervical cytology. * The Cervista Tm HPV 16/18 test is not intended to substitute for regular cervical cytology screening. * The use of this test has not been evaluated for the management of women with prior cytological or histological abnormalities, hysterectomy, who are pregnant, 3 of 39 postmenopausal, or who have other risk factors (e.g. HIV+, immunocompromised, history of STI).

The CervistaTM HPV 16/18 test is designed to enhance existing methods for the detection of cervical disease and should be used in conjunction with clinical information derived from other diagnostic and screening tests, physical examinations, and full medical history in accordance with appropriate patient management procedures.

CervistaTM HPV 16/18 test results should not be used as the sole basis for clinical assessment and treatment of patients.

SUMMARY AND EXPLANATION OF THE TEST Over 100 HPV types have been documented in the literature, approximately 40 of which infect the anogenital area and are transmitted sexually. Anogenital HPV is associated with virtually all cancers of the cervix.' Cervical cancer has previously been shown to be highly preventable when cytological and HPV screening programs are employed to facilitate the detection and treatment of pre-cancerous lesions.

4 of 39 Of the sexually transmitted types of HPV, 14 oncogenic genotypes (HPV types 16, 18, 31, 33, 35, 39, 45, 51, 52, 56, 58, 59, 66, and 68), are considered high-risk (HR) HPV types due to their strong association with cervical cancers (relative to low risk HPV types, which have little or no association with cervical cancer). 2 ,'19 Still, the vast majority of high-risk HPV infections are cleared 4 Very few high-risk HPV DNA positive women develop cytologic high-grade SIL (HSIL) indicating underlying CIN 2-3 or cancer. 5 The absolute risk of developing an incident cytologic abnormality following a HR HPV infection is known to vary in different populations. The presence of high-risk HPV DNA in conjunction with an equivocal or ambiguous cytology result (ASC-US) places a woman at increased risk for having an underlying cervical intraepithelial neoplasia 2 or 3 (CIN2 or CIN3).6 '7' 8 CIN3, while occurring in only approximately 5% of ASC-US cases, 9 is an immediate precursor to cervical cancer and consequently its detection is very important for patient management. 3,7 Therefore, the identification of those women with ASC-US cytology in conjunction with a high-risk HPV infection is a useful aid for clinicians to decide who should be monitored or treated more aggressively. 3' 810 1,' 1,12,13 Current scientific literature suggests that persistent infection with high-risk HPV is the main risk factor for development of high-grade cervical neoplasia and cancer.4 5' '15 Apparent persistence may represent continuous infection with a single HPV type, with multiple HPV types, or reinfection. Nonetheless, women with normal cervical cytology who are HR HPV negative appear to be at low risk for having or developing cervical precancerous lesions.' 10 HPV types 16 and 18 are recognized as both highly oncogenic and persistent, associated with 60% and 10% of cervical cancers, respectively, while also having the lowest clearance rates in cervical screening. 10' 1 4' 1 5'16 As a result, numerous studies report that women infected with HPV types 16 and 18 have a significantly higher risk for developing ->CIN3 than women infected with other high-risk types . 31 0,11 ,13 Beginning in 2002, patient management guidelines have been published by various groups of U.S. healthcare professionals that recommend how women should be screened for cervical cancer according to age, the presence of cytological abnormalities in a cervical sample, and other factors. 71' ' 19 These patient management guidelines consistently recommend testing for the presence of high-risk types of HPV as a regular screening tool, in combination with cytology in two instances: 1) for women age 30 and over; and 2) as an additional diagnostic tool for women 21 years of age and over with ASC-US.

According to the 2006 Consensus Guidelines for the Management of Women with Abnormal Cervical Cancer Screening Tests, women with negative cervical cytology results who test positive for the presence of high-risk HPV DNA would benefit from type-specific HPV genotyping. 1" 9 Studies support the validity of genotyping for HPV types 16 and 18, whether it is used as a follow-up to a high-risk HPV screening test or performed concurrently. 12 3', 10 , 31,9 ,20

PRINCIPLES OF THE PROCEDURE Cervista HPV 16/18 is a qualitative, in vitro diagnostic test for the detection of DNA from two high-risk HPV types: 16 and 18. The CervistaTM HPV 16/18 test uses the Invader® chemistry, a signal amplification method for detection of specific nucleic acid sequences. The Invader® technology uses two types of isothermal reactions: a primary reaction that occurs on the targeted DNA sequence and a secondary reaction that produces a fluorescent signal (See Figure 1). In the primary reaction, two types of sequence specific oligonucleotides (i.e. a probe oligonucleotide and an Invader® oligonucleotide) bind to the DNA target sequence. When these oligonucleotides overlap by at least one on the target sequence, an invasive

5of39 Li/' structure forms that acts as a substrate for the Cleavase® enzyme. The enzyme cleaves the 5' portion (flap) of the probe at the position of the overlap. The probes are present in large molar excess and cycie rapidly on and off the target sequence so that many cleaved 5' flaps are generated per target sequence. The cleaved flaps then bind to a universal hairpin FRET oligonucleotide creating another invasive structure that the Cleavase® enzyme recognizes as a substrate. The enzyme cleaves the FRET oligonucleotides between the fluorophore and quencher molecule and produces fluorescence signal as the cleaved flaps cycle on and off. For each copy of target, the combined primary and secondary reactions result in 106~_iO0 fold signal amplification per hour .21 The flap sequences and FRET oligonucleotides are universal since they are not complementary to the targeted sequence. The reagents for this test are provided as two oligonucleotide mixtures, which detect HPV16 and HPV1S. Oligonucleotides that bind to the human histone 2 gene (H2be, HlST2H2BE) are also present in these two oligonucleotide mixtures. HlST2H2BE serves as an internal control producing a signal from cellular DNA present in the sample. The format of the Cervista TM HPV 16/18 test allows simultaneous detection of HPV DNA sequences and HIST2H2BE in a single well by utilizing two different 5'-flap sequences on the probes as well as two different FRET oligonucleotides, each with a spectrally distinct fluorophore (FAM and Red). By design, the released 5'-flaps bind only to their respective FRET oligonucleotides to generate target-specific signal (see Figure 1). A positive result for HPV16, HPV18 or HPV16 and HPV18 is represented by a FAM fluorescent signal that lies above an empirically derived cut-off value. For each reaction, a negative result is represented by a FAM fluorescent signal that lies below the same empirically derived cut-off value. As a means to determine the relative quantity of sample DNA in each reaction, Human HlST2H2BE is measured by a Red fluorescent signal that lies above an empirically derived cut-off value in each reaction. The measure of this target serves as a quality control mechanism to confirm that a negative result is not due to insufficient sample. This internal control target also serves as an internal processing measure to ensure that the testing procedure has been adequately performed.

Add 10 piL of the appropriate reaction mix to each well containing a control or sample (see Figure 2), taking care to pipette below the mineral oil. 8. Incubate the plate at a 6300 setting for 4 hours. Data Collection 1. Always bring the plate to room temperature before reading. If the plate cannot be read immediately, store it at 2-8oC (it is recommended to read the plate within 24 hours of test completion). 2. Place the 96-well plate (well Al must be in upper left corner) in the plate holder of the fluorescence plate reader. Remove plate-sealing tape. 3. Define the plate type to set up the coordinates and probe height for the specific type of plate. Save the settings. 4. Read the entire plate. Two separate scans are required; FAM (Excitation = 485 nm, Emission = 535 nm) and Red (Excitation = 560 nm, Emission = 612 nm). To detect the HPV signal, the instrument should be set to detect the FAM dye first. To detect the sample genomic DNA, the instrument should be set to detect the Red dye. 5. Adjust the gain of the fluorescence plate reader to be in the linear dynamic range of the reader according to the manufacturer's instructions. The gain should be set so that the No Target Control (NTC) yields values that are in the background range of the reader, with a minimum RFUI of 600. The NTC values do not have to be identical for the FAM and Red reads.

Controls must be added to the designated positions on the test plate layout shown in Figure 2 in order for the Invader Call Reporter TM software to function properly. 9. Use fresh mineral oil for each reaction setup (do not transfer these reagents back to the original container once they have been dispensed). 10. Refer to the test plate layout to ensure that the correct mix is added to the appropriate column. 11. Always place the pipette tip near the bottom of the well to ensure that the reaction mix is added below the mineral oil. Mix by carefully filling and emptying the pipette tip 3-5 times. 12. The Cervista TM HPV 16/18 Test Procedure, Quality Controls, and the Interpretation of Results must be followed closely to obtain reliable test results.

INTERPRETATION OF RESULTS

A signal to noise value (sample signal measured against signal from a No Target Control reaction well) is referred to as FOZ (Fold-Over-Zero). FOZ values are generated for both the HPV 16 and HPV 18 reactions. A final positive, negative or indeterminate result for any particular sample is generated based on the analysis of two separate reaction wells. When the HPV1 6 FOZ value and/or HPV1 8 FOZ value is greater than 2.13, the sample is positive for HPV 16 and/or HPV 18.

An indeterminate call is generated in three different scenarios 1) when the % difference between the gONA FOZ values is Ž:25.0% (High % difference), 2) when both HPV FOZ values are < 0.7 (Low HPV FOZ) and 3) when average gDNA FOZ of a negative sample is < 1.5 (low gDNA). An indeterminate call is indicative of insufficient mixing, a pipetting error or inadequate gDNA in the sample (see Troubleshooting Guide). A summary of the sample call criteria described above is shown in Figure 3. Terminology HPV FOZ: For each HPV Oligo Mix, the FAM signal of the sample divided by the FAM signal of the No Target Control. Average gDNA FOZ: The average value determined from the two genomic DNA FOZ values obtained from both of the reaction mixes, calculated by dividing the Red signal of the sample by the Red signal of the No Target Control. %Difference aDNA FOZ: The absolute value of the difference between the HPV16 and HPV18 genomic DNA FOZ values divided by the average genomic DNA FOZ value of the two HPV Oligo Mixes.

HPV HR and HPV 16/18 are run at the same time and a HR negative result is obtained alongside a 16/18 positive result, the 16/18 result is not interpretable. If both test results are negative, interpret the results the same as you would a HR negative TM result. 'The Cervista HPV 16/18 test does not determine whether high-risk HPV types other than 16/18 are present. An individual may be simultaneously infected with multiple HPV types. dIndividuals who are CervistaTM HPV HR positive and Cervista HPV 16/18 negative are most likely infected with a non-16/18 high-risk HPV type.

QUALITY CONTROL Internal Control The CervistaTM HPV 16/18 test includes an internal control which determines the relative quantity of sample DNA in each reaction. The internal control, Human HIST2H2BE, is measured by a Red fluorescent signal that lies above an empirically derived cut-off value in each reaction. The measure of this target serves as a quality control mechanism to confirm that a negative result is not due to insufficient sample. This internal control target also serves as an internal processing measure to ensure that the testing procedure has been adequately performed.

External Controls Negative Control The No Target Control must be run on each assay plate and results must meet the following criteria in order for the samples on that plate to be valid. If it does not meet these criteria, the samples and controls on that plate are invalid and must be repeated (see Table 5 for summary): 1. The minimum signal for each mix must be greater than or equal to 600 RFU (> 600). 2. The % Difference between the gDNA signals from both mixes must be less than 30.0% (<30.0%). Table 5: No Target Control Criteria

Result Min HPV Signal Min. gONA Signal Ma.%Dfenc (gDNA) Valid 600 600 29.9%

Positive Controls HPV controls (HPV16, HPV18) must be run on each assay plate and results must meet the following criteria for the test to be valid. If controls do not meet these criteria, the samples on that plate are also invalid and testing must be repeated (see Table 6 for summary). 1. The HPV FOZ value is determined by dividing the FAM signal of the control by the FAM signal of the No Target Control for each respective mix. The HPV16 Control should yield a positive HPV FOZ value (> 2.13) for only the HPV16 Oligo Mix and the HPV18 Control should yield a positive HPV FOZ value (->2.13) for only the HPV18 Oligo Mix.

14 of 39 -5 2. The average gDNA FOZ of the two mixes must be greater than or equal to 1.50 (Ž 1.50), or the control is invalid for low genomic DNA. 3. The % Difference between the gDNA FOZ values from both mixes should be less than 25.0% (<25.0%).

Note: Additional external controis may be tested according to guidelines or requirements of local, state, and/or country regulations or accrediting organizations. Any additional external controls should be tested in well(s) designated for patient samples per the plate layout.

Test Verification 1.Sample results are valid when the positive and negative controls yield the correct results. If the No Target Control (negative control) is invalid and/or any result for positive control(s) is invalid, all sample results on that plate are invalid and must be repeated. Refer to the Troubleshooting sections located in this insert and in the Software User Manual for Invader Call ReporterT m software. 2. All quality control requirements should be performed in conformance with local, state, and federal regulations as well as accreditations requirements.

LIMITATIONS 1. The Cervista TM HPV 16/18 test only detects DNA of HPV types 16 and 18. This test does not detect high-risk HPV types 33, 35, 39, 45, 51, 52, 56, 58, 59, 66, and 68. Nor does it detect HPV low-risk types since there is no known clinical utility for testing Low-Risk HPV types.19 2. The Cervista Tm HPV 16/18 test exhibits cross-reactivity to high levels of HPV High-Risk type 31. An HPV16 positive result was observed with 10o7 copies/reaction of HPV type 31. 3. A negative result does not exclude the possibility of HPV16 and/or 18 infection because very low levels of infection or sampling error may cause a false-negative result. 4. The test has been validated for use with cervical cytology specimens collected in PreservCyt® Solution using a Rovers Cervex Brush", Wallach Papette®, or Endlocervical Brush/Spatula. 5. The performance of the Cervista Tm HPV 16/18 test was established using DNA extracted with the Genfind Tm DNA Extraction Kit.

15 of39 6. The performance of the Cervista TM HPV 16/18 test was established using cervical cytology PreservCyt® specimens processed on the ThinPrep 2000 processor, it has not been established using other processors. 7. The performance of the CervistaTM HPV 16/18 test has not been adequately established for HPV vaccinated individuals. 8. Interference was observed in cervical specimens contaminated with high levels (2%) of contraceptive jelly and/or anti-fungal creams when DNA was isolated with the GenfindTM DNA Extraction Kit. Under these conditions, false-negative results may be obtained. 9. The Cervista TM HPV 16/18 DNA Test for human papillomavirus types 16 and 18 is not recommended for evaluation of suspected sexual abuse. 10. Prevalence of HPV infection in a population may affect performance. Positive predictive values decrease when testing populations with low prevalence or individuals with no risk of infection. 11. Infection with HPV is not an indicator of cytologic HSIL or underlying high-grade CIN, nor does it imply that CIN2-3 or cancer will develop. Most women infected with one or more high-risk HPV types do not develop CIN2-3 or cancer. 12.A negative HPV 16/18 result does not exclude the possibility of future cytologic HSIL or underlying CIN 2-3 or cancer. 13. PreservCyt® Solution specimens containing volumes less than 2 ml after the ThinPrep® Pap Test slides are prepared are considered inadequate for the CervistaTM HPV 16/18 Test.

EXPECTED RESULTS

High-Risk HPV16 and HPV18 Prevalence

The reported prevalence of HPV infection in women ranges widely, from 14% to more than 90%. 22 Several factors can affect the HPV prevalence among patient populations due to heterogeneity in geographic location, age, number of sexual partners, history of abnormal cervical cytology, coupled with differences in sampling techniques and testing methods and the intermittent nature of the infection. The CervistaTM HPV 16/18 multi-center prospective clinical study enrolled women from 89 clinical sites across 23 states throughout the United States which produced a demographically diverse patient population.

PERFORMANCE CHARACTERISTICS Clinical Sensitivity and Specificity of Cervista Tm HPV 16118 Among Women with ASC- US Cervical Cytology Results A multi-center prospective clinical study was conducted to evaluate the performance of the Cervista Tm HPV 16/18 test among patients with ASO-US cytology results to determine the need for referral to colposcopy. All clinical performance characteristics were established using ThinPrep liquid cytology specimens. Initial Thin Prep cervical specimens were classified according to the 2001 Bethesda System Classification. All women (18 years or older) with cytology results of ASC-US during routine cervical cancer screening procedures were invited to participate in the study prior to learning their HPV status. For women who consented, their initial residual ASO-US ThinPrep specimens were subsequently obtained for CerviStaTm HPV 16/18 testing. All patients who consented to the study underwent colposcopic examination. Investigators and patients remained blinded to the patient's HPV status until after completion of the colposcopic procedures, to avoid bias. Colposcopically directed histological specimens were examined by pathologists who were also blinded to the patient's HPV status. 1,514 women age 18 and over with ASC-US results were ultimately enrolled in the study from 89 clinical sites across the United States.

The clinical performance of the Cervista TM HPV 16/18 test was measured against colposcopy and histology results. Biopsy samples were collected from the women with ASO-US cytology as warranted by standard of care guidelines at each participating clinical site. Consensus histology results provided by a central pathologist review panel served as the "gold standard" for determining the presence or absence of disease. In the absence of histology data, the lack of colposcopically visible cervical lesions and no biopsy equated to the absence of disease.

There were 1,312 ASC-UIS subjects with known disease status (central histology or negative colposcopy) and CervistaTm HPV HR and Cervista Tm HPV 16/18 results. The clinical performance characteristics of the Cervista Tm HPV 16/18 test are shown in Tables 9-15.

IN WOMEN 30 YEARS AND OLDER WITH NILM CYTOLOGY, PERFORMANCE OF THE Tm CERVISTA HPV 16118 TEST AS A REFLEX HPV TEST TO HELP GUIDE PATIENT MANAGEMENT

A longitudinal 3 year post-approval study has been initiated to support the use of the Cervista T HPV 16/18 test as a reflex test in women 30 years of age and older with normal cytology and positive HPV HR test results. The study design is described below, along with preliminary analytical data obtained from the study population at enrollment. This analytical study was used for evaluation of agreement of the Cervista Tm HPV16/18 test with DNA sequencing as a comparator for HPV detection in the ASO-US and NILM Ž30 populations. Approval for this indication is being given prior to completion of the longitudinal studies in light

20 of 39 C of the analytical study results. Additionally, consistent data obtained from multiple cross- sectional and prospective cohort studies conducted with a variety of cell sampling methods and utilizing a variety of HPV DNA testing methods (both FDA approved, and research grade) provide strong evidence that a negative HPV DNA test implies very low risk of prevalent or incipient CIN 2-3 or cancer when cervical cytology are normal.58'112"23 Furthermore, the absence of HPV 16 and 18 in this population of women further reduces the risk of developing cervical disease and conversely the presence of HPV 16 or HPV 18 augments the relative risk of cervical disease among women >30 years of age regardless of NILM cytological find ings. 10 1, 1 ,13,24 Description of NILM2!3O clinical study Approximately 2,000 qualified subjects with normal Pap test results (NILM) have been enrolled from 26 active clinical centers throughout the United States. It is anticipated that not less than 1,000 subjects will have 3-year follow-up data. The subject retention rate at the end of the first year of follow-up has been nearly 80%. Subjects will be followed for 3 years and have annual study visits. At each follow-up visit, a cervical cytology test is performed. Women who have ASC-US or higher grade cytology results will have a colposcopy performed, and subsequently a biopsy if needed. Analysis of these data will focus on the three-year risk of cervical disease associated with NILM subjects positive for Cervista TM HPV 16/18 as compared to those negative for the test at the time of enrollment (To) and also the three-year risk of cervical disease associated with NILM subjects positive for CervistaTM HPV 16/18 as compared to those negative for any HPV high-risk type at the time of enrollment (To). The presence or absence of HPV at To, will be compared against the presence or absence of (a) > CIN2 and (b) > CIN3 throughout the study. The presence of CIN2, CIN3 or cervical cancer will be ascertained by central histology. Negative results will be defined by colposcopy unless central histology results are available to supersede an initial positive colposcopic indication. All histological interpretation will be conducted by a central pathology review panel.

Comparison of DNA Sequencing and Cervista Tm HPVI 6II8 for the ASC-US and NILM Ž 30 Populations

Residual DNA samples from both the ASO-US and NILM subjects were used for PCR amplification and sequencing. DNA samples were amplified using consensus primers for the HPV Li gene. A portion of the human beta-globin gene was also amplified as an internal control. Purified amplicons were used as templates in multiple sequencing reactions for 14 high-risk types of HPV: 16, 18, 31, 33, 35, 39, 45, 51, 52, 56, 58, 59, 66, and 68. The sequencing data was analyzed using various sequence alignment software. Below is a comparison between Cervista Tm HPV 16/18 and DNA sequencing for the detection of HPV 16 and l8 in both ASC-US and NILM Ž 30 populations:

Analytical Sensitivity Cloned HPV plasmid DNA, representing the HPV types 16 and 18 detected by the CervistaTM HPV 16/18 test, was tested to determine the individual analytical sensitivity for each specific type. Nine HPV-negative characterized DNA samples isolated from cervical specimens were tested in replicates of eight (9 samples x 8 replicates/sample = 72 data points) to determine the Limit of Blank (LoB). The LoB values (FAM FOZ) were 1.18 and 1.21 from HPV 16 and HPV 18 respectively. Limit of Detection (LoD) is the lowest amount of analyte in a sample that the sample has the test results "HPV 16 or HPV 18 detected" at least 95% of the time (results of the test are above the analytical cutoff 95% of the time). Individual Limit of Detection (LoD) values were calculated for both HPV types (16, 18). Each HPV plasmid DNA was tested at concentrations of 5000, 2500, 1250, and 625 copies per reaction, each in a background of three genomic DNA concentrations isolated from an HPV-negative cell line

23 of 39 (10 ng, 100 ng, and 1 /pg per reaction). All positive samples were tested in replicates of eight resulting in 24 replicates per HPV plasmid DNA concentration. The LoB and LoD were evaluated according to the CLSI document EP17-A. 25 The Limit of Detection for each HPV type is referenced in Table 21. Limits are described in terms of the FAM FOZ and as a copy number range. Copy number per reaction LoD values were reported as the copy number range in which 95% of the observed FAM FOZ values were above the LoB.

DNA was isolated from the cell line samples using the Genfind TM DNA Extraction Kit. Using a clinical HPV 16 and HPV18 FOZ cut-off of 2.13, concentrations of approximately 2,500 cells/ml for both SiHa and HeLa cells were above the clinical cutoff 95% of the time.

Clinical Cutoff of the CervistaTM HPV 16118 test The clinical cut-off was evaluated based on HPV16/18 test results targeting a 5% positive rate in the NILM >30 population from a multi-center clinical study. The 95th percentile of the maximum HPV16 and HPV18 FOZ values was determined for NILM >30 subjects and based on this analysis, a FOZ value of >2.13 was selected as the positive cutoff value for the CervistaTM HPV 16/18 test.

Precision Repeatability and within-laboratory precision of the CervistaTM HPV 16/18 test was demonstrated in a 21-day study with three alternating operators, each performing two runs per day on individually assigned sets of equipment. Each run consisted of one plate. Different plate layouts were used for the runs within a day. The procedure followed CLSI EP5-A2. Each run consisted of genomic DNA samples isolated from two HPV positive cell lines (SiHa - Type 16 and HeLa - Type 18), a HPV negative cell line (Jurkat) and contrived samples containing HPV16 or HPV18 plasmid DNA and Jurkat DNA. Each sample was tested in duplicate. The total number of measurements per sample was 84 (21 days, 2 runs per day, 2 replicates per run).

24 of 39 The repeatability and within-laboratory precision values were calculated for each target at each concentration. The precision values for HPV16 FOZ are shown in Table 22 and the HPV18 FOZ values are shown in Table 23. A summary of positive HPV16 and positive HPV18 results are shown in Tables 24 and 25 respectively.

Reproducibility Reproducibility of the CervistaiMr HPV 16/18 test was assessed at three external sites using a panel of HPV positive and negative cultured cells and HPV positive and negative cervical specimens. DNA was extracted from 2 mL of cervical specimen or cultured cells suspended in PreservCyt® Solution. The DNA was extracted using the Genfind Tm DNA Extraction Kit. Sixteen samples were extracted for DNA and tested with Cervista Tm HPV 16/18 at three locations on five non-consecutive days within a two-week time period. Two lots of Cervista Tm HPV 16/18 kits and three lots of Genfind Tm DNA Extraction Kits were used across the 3 sites for the study. The total number of measurements for each sample was 15 = (3 sites x 5 days x 1 run per day). A summary of the percent agreement between the expected and observed results combined for all sites is shown in Table 26. A summary of individual sample results across sites with a cumulative mean, standard deviation and 95% confidence interval for the HPV16 and HPV18 FOZ values are presented in Table 27 and Table 28.

Interfering Substances Three cell-line samples (one HPV negative, one HPV16 positive, one HPV18 positive) described in Table 29 were tested with interferents that could potentially be present in the cervical specimen or transferred inadvertently during sample extraction using the GenfindTM DNA Extraction Kit (Table 30). Concentration levels were chosen to represent extreme conditions that could potentially occur during specimen collection if the cervix was not cleared prior to obtaining the specimen. DNA was isolated from pure and impure samples using the GenfindTM DNA Extraction Kit and was tested with the CervistaTM HPV 16/18 test to assess interference caused by the introduced substances.

Cross-Reactivity A panel of bacteria, fungi, and viruses commonly found in the female anogenital tract, as well as several Human papillomavirus types of high, low, or undetermined risk were tested with the CervistaTM HPV 16/18 test to assess potential cross-reactivity. Table 31: The organisms listed below were added to PreservCyt® Solution at concentrations of approximately 1 x10 5 cfu/mL and 1x10 7 cfu/mL. DNA from these organisms and a negative cell line (Jurkat, 1x10 5 cells/mL) was extracted using the GenfindTM DNA Extraction Kit. All samples yielded negative results with the CervistaTM HPV 16/18 test.
